Having been missing for almost a decade, Lilianna Fray doesn't realise her significance to the shadow world. But then again who does? People remember her but people don't know who she truly is. After being separated from her parabatai for almost a d...
We soon arrived at the club, Hardball to find that it was crowded with people.
Alec, Iz and I were scoping the place out to secure the perimeter. When we deemed it okay, we walked back to Clary and Jace saying, "All clear."
I linked arms with Clary as Iz linked arms with me, "Do you think red's my colour?" The Lightwood girl asked me.
I tipped my head back and laughed, "Iz, with a body like yours, everything's your colour." She smiled cockily and said, "Good point. Damn, I make this necklace look so good."

Alec seemed annoyed again, "Will you take it off? I'm certain Magnus Bane doesn't want drool on his ruby when we make the exchange." I rolled my eyes as they began another fight, "You know, I wouldn't be so sure. Most men like it when I admire their jewels." I couldn't help but let out a laugh as she said that but that just caused everyone to stare at me, causing me to blush.
Alec shook his head whilst Izzy giggled beside me, "Can you just give it to Jace?" he demanded.
"You're such a buzzkill." she laughed it off. Jace took the necklace from Iz and put it in his pocket.
Whilst we waited, the melody of the music box filled my head. After a while, I couldn't help but hum along with it. Jace must have heard me humming and jerked his head to look at me. What? I asked with my eyes. He didn't answer me because we were allowed into the club at that moment.

Finally, we entered the club to find several downworlders dancing to the catchy beat.
Jace started his orders, "Blend in. But keep your weapons ready." Everyone started moving but when I went to leave, he paused me and silently handed me the necklace. I looked at and at him in confusion. He replied, "I know you can protect it."
I gave him a small smile before taking the necklace and placing it in my pocket. I turned away from him and led him further into the club.
I'm pretty sure Jace would deny this but I saw Magnus first, sitting on the lounge, checking out his own reflection. I stepped towards him and the others quickly followed.
